What Today's Advances in Radar Technology Mean for Testing and Training

As radio frequency (RF) and digital hardware have advanced over the years, radar capabilities have progressed to provide higher resolution, greater tracking ranges and higher frequency agility as well as data processing and electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) for protection. Technology advancements in RF, digital hardware, active electronically scanned arrays (AESA), synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and cognitive electronic warfare (cogEW) have necessitated advances in test and training systems.
